Day After Brother Musheer Breaks Sachin Tendulkar's Record, Sarfaraz Khan Re-shares 'Sher Bhookha Hai' Post

It was an emotional day for Naushad Khan and family as the younger son of the household - Musheer Khan - surpassed Sachin Tendulkar's record in Ranji Trophy final. Musheer is the brother of Sarfaraz Khan, who recently impressed during his Test debut. In the ongoing Ranji Trophy final against Vidarbha, Musheer has given signs that he could be the star for the future. He scored a knock of 136 in 326 deliveries, consisting of 10 boundaries, helping Mumbai get a massive 500-plus run lead.

Musheer Khan thus became the youngest Mumbai batter to score a century in a Ranji Trophy final.  Sachin Tendulkar, who held the previous record was present at the stands, as the 19-year-old Musheer brought up his exquisitely carved ton in 255 balls.

Musheer, brother of India batter Sarfaraz Khan, is aged 19 years and 14 days, while Tendulkar was just below 22 years of age when he scored twin hundreds in the 1994-95 season final against Punjab.

A day after the feat, Sarfaraz Khan praised his brother's performance in a series of Instagram stories.

During the semifinal against Tamil Nadu, Musheer played an important hand with the bat, scoring a valuable 55 in 131 balls, with six fours, before all-rounder Shardul Thakur hit a brilliant counter-attacking century to give Mumbai a 232-run lead. Mumbai won the match by an innings and 70 runs.

During the quarterfinal against Baroda, Musheer converted his maiden first-class century into a double ton, smashing 203 in 357 balls, with 18 fours in the first innings. He scored a quickfire 33 in 25 balls, with five fours in the second innings. Mumbai won on the basis of their first-innings lead after the match ended in a draw.

In three matches so far, Musheer has scored 433 runs at an average of 108.25,
